Happy 43rd birthday to Dallas Cowboys legend Jason Witten!

While the Cowboys never made it to the NFL championship with Witten, he was an excellent security blanket for Tony Romo and the early years of Dak Prescott -- making 11 Pro Bowls (including seven in a row from 2004-2010), named a first-team All Pro twice and being named the 2012 Walter Payton Man of the Year.

Witten caught 1,228 passes for 13,046 yards and 74 touchdowns in his 17-year career, and will appear on the Pro Football Hall-of-Fame ballot for the first time this year.

Which brings us to today's quiz. How many of the players to win the NFL's prestigious Walter Payton Man of the Year award since 2000 can you name in five minutes?

Good luck!
